Cold Turkey Blocker Pro 3.4

Cold Turkey Blocker Pro 3.4 macOS

Cold Turkey is a distraction-blocking apps, an might just be one of the cruelest. It allows you to block websites and apps at scheduled times and, when those hours come along, you’re stuck with those settings. The fundamental problem with every distraction blocker is that you can usually circumvent them just as easily as you set them up.

Cold Turkey, on the other hand, promises that you can’t kill it via the task manager, uninstall it while it’s running, or change your system time to get around it. While there is a worst-case scenario removal tool, hopefully your lack of self-control won’t get that bad. If you’re someone who is bedtime challenged (college student, entrepreneur, night owl), this is a particularly useful feature. It is also useful if you tend to make ill-advised eBay purchases or Tweets in the middle of the night. Cold Turkey has a slick interface which makes it easy to schedule focus sessions. It may be aimed primarily toward young adults and college students, but it could be useful to anyone trying to restrict their computer time
